HELP. My mac pro has had a kernel attack on startup
My early 2008 Mac pro for the past two days will boot 40% through on the loading bar screen then (what I assume is a kernel attack) I hear a click and it shuts down. Ive tried SMC, PRAM,, etc with non works. I try PRAM reset and it just shuts down immediately. I try holding down D and it rather completely ignores the input or presents me with a flashing folder with a question mark on it. If it makes a difference I did install 16GB of RAM a few months before but one of the sticks of RAM sometimes doesn't register leaving me with 14gb of RAM. I just kept it in there. This has also happened a month ago but it only lasted for a day. I appreciate and feedback thank you in advancedt
Mac Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.4)
